Interesting to know why the other unlisted  OM lenses cannot be easily 
converted. 

It may be that some OM lenses have different thickness/design native flanges, 
and they only make the one size flange replacement? The rear element may 
protrude too far? It is difficult to fit a spring?

The Leitax site is well known amongst lens hackers, so it is nice to see OM now 
included.

  They also make Leica to Alpha conversions, so maybe they will eventually do 
an OM to alpha which to my mind is nice given the "low price" new Sony FF with 
IS body?

For the Ni*onians that have duplicate Zuikos or insist they want to use 
them on Nikyon?
Interesting or sacrilege?  I have not run into this before.
